    When the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in Taiwan
(PCT) meets again in 2004, at least one fifth of the voting
members of every board, committee and task force it will appoint
will be women.  To prepare the human resources for this
eventuality, the women's work committee of Tainan Presbytery has
enlisted the help of Tainan Theological College to offer a course
for 21st Century women. The first session will be held on
September 26th at the college.
    The curriculum is comprehensive.  Lessons include: Foundations
of Christian faith; Presbyterian Faith and Order, Scriptural
Interpretation in Women's Experience; Spiritual Growth; Women and
Mission; Modern Religions; Social Analysis; Spiritual Renewal and
Church Revival.
Special emphasis will be placed upon: Leadership and Development
for the new century; EQ education; Stress Management; Project
Planning and Evaluation; Social Welfare; Women's Welfare;
Self-Development and Life Planning.
    Women from Tainan are all welcome to enroll.  Phone Ms. Ong at
(06) 237-1291, ext. 118.
